If you intend to spend a lot of time at the beaches, it's advisable not to opt for anything too big as your Panaji car hire choice. As mentioned, the roads that lead to the beach are narrow, so you won't be able to reach them unless you get a compact vehicle – a small SUV will do in a pinch if you're with your family. For general city driving, a hatchback or sedan make good options, and you won't have trouble travelling to other towns and cities in these types of vehicles. If you're planning inland road trips rather a beach holiday, an all-purpose MPV will be ideal, allowing you to explore the rural areas with ease.

Panaji has a number of speed limits, depending on the area in which you find yourself. As a general rule, the speed limit is 40 km/h on all streets in the urban district, but this can change from road to road, so make sure you keep an eye out for speed limit signs. For instance, the limit of the Old & New Mandovi bridges is 40 km/h, but when you cross the Zuari Bridge, it's only 30 km/h. On rural roads and one-lane highways, you can drive at 60 km/h, with the limit rising to 100 km/h on the freeways.

A pay parking scheme applies to street parking in the central districts of Panaji. Costs typically range from around ₹4.00 for up to 4 hours of parking, and about ₹8.00 for 4–12 hours. Look for this kind of parking on the main roads in the city, like DB Marg and Dom Joao de Castro Road near the Old Patto Bridge. You can find free parking at the Joggers Park in the Menezes neighbourhood, and there are a number of paid car parks like the multi-level at Patto Colony. Charges typically start at around ₹5.00 for the first couple of hours, going up to about ₹15.00 for full-day parking.
